Only once, during a moment of sleep paralysis.

What medication is this? I know DPH (Benadryl) can give you some pretty nasty, vivid, hallucinations in high doses.
I had a job that I hated so much that it started fucking with my mind. I'd have these weird episodes which involved anxiety, visual and auditory hallucinations. It sucked. Shit would change sizes and have lights coming out of it, there was absolutely nothing fun about it. Well, there might have been if it weren't for the anxiety that came with it. It was terrifying.
On the other hand I did acid once. That was fun. Also, it was after I quit the job so it wasn't some sort of leftover trace for those wondering. Unless you're having a great time chilling with spidey I'd recommend you see your doctor.
Also, guys, never work at Hungry Jacks. (Burger King for non-Australians)

My hallucinations seem limited to catching movement out of the corner of my eye and sometimes catching brief glimpses of many-legged things quickly moving out of sight.
Yes, I worry about it.

I agree with everyone else. You might want to swap them out for different pills. In truth through, a pharmacist will know more about the drugs you should take since they have to by the nature of their job. So i suggest talking to a pharmacist before your doc to get an idea of what you should get.
For Hilarious Hallucination stories, i have one. after i had my appendix removed and i was still in the hospital recovering. I woke up in the middle of the night, the anesthesia they used on me was still in my system. I saw a pillow from my house moving around the room like a spider, the first thing that popped in my mind about the pillow was, "Oh look! the king of Egypt has come over for lunch!"
Moral of the story. anesthesia can give you crazy hallucinations and make you derp in way you never thought possible.

I have Sleep Paralysis (that disorder where your entire body locks up, unable to move, and barely breathe, and you're caught in a thin fissure between deep R.E.M. sleep and being awake), and I once had visual hallucinations, though I couldn't remember them at all, thirty seconds after it happened. The strange thing is, the next time I had an attack, they were AUDIO hallucinations, and I quickly realized that they weren't hallucinations, but were actually audio MEMORIES of random stuff I had heard in the past year or so. It would start with just one audio memory, then rapidly build up into a cacophonous collection of catastrophic craziness, where the audio memories were absolutely DEAFENING inside my own head. And of course, being unable to move in that state, I can't shake myself from the horror, or at least ineffectually cover my ears to provide some sort of comfort and false sense of protection against the noise.
To this day I wonder if my visual hallucinations were also memories, and that maybe when the brain is storing short-term memories into long-term memories, it solidifies audio and visual separately.

during a particularly bad case of insomnia i spent a night locked in a cupboard with an axe because i kept seeing the grim reaper outside a window.
i have never been more scared in my life.

Even though it's listed as a side effect, I would still bring this up with your doctor. They sound really vivid...
Once when I was really tired in class I hallucinated Ronald McDonald suddenly being the background of the PowerPoint. I blinked and he went away. I think I was on the verge of dreaming. Other than this experience I've never had any hallucinations.

Wait! I just remembered the hallucinations I had when I was like five years old. Often when I was going to bed, a chain multicolored, giant snow flakes would float by my bed on a river of sparkles. I know this sounds retarded but it definitely wasn't a dream because sometimes they would show up when I wasn't even tired.
Nowadays if I saw them, I'd probably go see a doctor but back then I remember them being strangely comforting and I remember hoping I'd see them each night. Some people had imaginary friends, I had imaginary snow flakes.

You spelled "awesome" wrong dude. I mean the spidey one might be depressing because it perpetually reminds you of that movie. But otherwise, awesome.OhJohnNo said:
Dude, life is a hallucination of sorts, after all everything you observe is just what your brain interprets your occular input as, which means what you might see as red could be what someone else calls turquoise, but since turquoise looks like something else to you, and they always called what you see as turquoise red, that you see that and identify it as red, but when someone else looks at it, it totally looks like a different colour, now apply that to EVERYTHING, now reassemble your brain.

Ambien hallucinations are fascinating... I remember this one time when I thought I could run a quick dungeon in Morrowind before going to bed, and the Ambien a) caused the game to be so enjoyable that I no longer wanted to go to bed and made me keep on playing b) suddenly gave me the ability to make sense of the ghostly whispers and understand that they were talking about 23 murders being commited by the German left-wing terrorist organization RAF.
These hallucinations quickly subside as you become tolerant, though, although "tolerance to a short-acting (non-)benzo" should be regarded as far more dangerous than a few little GABA-mediated hallucinations in bed.
Edit: Also used it on a plane ride across the Atlantic, the result of which was the realization that a) airplane interiors have a "yellowish-turquoise, cathedral-like quality" to them and b) that you should only take it *after* the in-flight meal unless you want to regain consciousness 4 hours later with a lot of food stains on your shirt.

Sorry but that's terrible advice...this clearly isn't something that OP was expecting of the medication, and a lot of sleeping pills can have the side effect of triggering psychosis. While the hallucinations themselves are most likely harmless it wouldn't be something most people would want on a permanent basis, so OP should be talking with a doctor about the side effects.Kargathia said:
The only hallucinations I have ever experienced was when I was sick with a 105f degree fever. I felt as if the room I was in became larger and larger and that I was in a bed in a gigantic room. It even sounded echoey.
